I am confused, Is it a sport? I read this 3 times and still have no idea what this entails...More info about it would be nice for us non-Canadians(?).

Canadian Football League (CFL). The Grey Cup is the championship trophy.

If you are familiar with the NFL, it's basically the Canadian version. American rules football is derived from Canadian rules. Major differences being the field size (CFL is 110 yard field, but field goal kicking range is the same); 12 players per side, instead of 11 in NFL; 3 downs instead of 4; and the ball is bigger in Canadian rules.

It's a pretty small league with only 8 teams, and most teams are filled with players who couldn't make the NFL, though either the league or each team has to have a certain percentage of Canadian players. Personally, I like the CFL rules better as it makes for a more exciting game, but it's hard to beat the talent level of the NFL when it comes to North American style football.

Haven't watched a full game all year, will probably tune in a couple times to see the score. If you have a chance you should def. go to the game though, CFL games are actually really fun to go to. It's like a giant party pretty much. I went to the game in Calgary a couple years ago and it was really fun. It's weird, growing up I always thought of CFL as the big professional league but as I'm older now, it's clear the NFL is just above and beyond better in terms of player skill and overall enjoyability but there's something about the CFL that's entertaining. No game is ever over unless it's a huge blowout with 3 downs and 2 timeouts. A bunch of the Stamps players work out at the gym I go to too, so it's pretty cool to see them in person often.

yeah I've been to a bunch of Tigercats games since it's close by. Pretty fun in the summer, really cold around now.
